Rainbow

A flop of three different suits, making a flush draw impossible on the flop.

In depth

A **rainbow** flop consists of three cards of different suits, eliminating the possibility of a flush draw on the flop. Since no two cards share the same suit, players cannot hold a flush draw at this stage, resulting in a board texture where flush threats are absent until further community cards are revealed.
